You have to rename the backup before backing up. The auto rename is broked.

@phoenixita is that changelog for 18/12 for a build that's being beamed up ? Or is it for the 16/12 build? Just curious if I should keep my eyes peeled for three next few hours, because my moar options itch is being too be scratched and I keep calling back on my cm11 build because I'm lazy to redo all the time I've spent getting my cm11 "just" right...

Thank you by the way for all you've done in giving us some options in the KitKat world!

Changelog for the latest available! Copied From nexus 5 thread by Scott.
[HTC One S] Rapier:
Then you have build it before the official was released. Yours is from 16/12, two days earlier

I can't backup the system partition,all the other partitions backing up fine (boot, cache and data).
[HTC One S] derkleinebroicher:
I had mentioned this before in this thread: I can make backups only from the twrp-manager app. From there it works without any problem (full backup, data only or whatever). Restoring is possible directly within the recovery. Maybe you should try this, I think, it's worth an attempt.

I forgot about this app ))) Tnx!

I used LiveBackup and you're right - it works fine.

Latest build + clean install = screen dosen't light up + SystemUI FC after rebooting.

The same thing on LiquidSmooth-Kitkat ((
[HTC One S] _kevn_:
I had backups fail on me after I flashed bubba going from 13/12 to 14/12 I think it was. Nothing I could do would right it. Luckily I've been making nandroids before each update so I only lost a day of data.

I'm not sure what the cause was so I didn't report... I only had 3 out of the usual 6 (I think) items in the backup folder.

I flashed the nandroid and all was well again, backups working since (at least 6-8 of them)

I was pretty peeved when it was happening. Hopefully you have a recent backup to flash back to to possibly "fix" it, unless someone else has further knowledge/expertise than I. :-\

version

Is the only difference between 4.4.1 and 4.4.2 that 4.4.2 requires hboot 2.16?

I am running hboot 2.15... and this is what I have gleaned from this thread... just want to confirm.

Thanks!!

syntropic
[HTC One S] grorg:
No, you are wrong. There's also 4.4.1 ROMs for hboot 2.16 and 4.4.2 for 2.15. It's a different firmwares.
[HTC One S] cyonix87:
what about the battery life?
[HTC One S] phoenixita:
There is something weird with our device tree that makes systemui f/c...
[HTC One S] Rapier:
2.16 is an unofficial (leaked) hboot and it's not supported officially by any 4.4 ROMs. It was initially used for certain Sense-based ROMs like MaximusHD. As several people upgraded their hboots to 2.16 to flash MaximusHD, they wanted also to test/flash CM1 or KitKat ROMs.

2.16 uses a different partition layout/sizes than hboot 2.15 and below, therefore any ROM should be specifically built for 2.16 for these users be able to use it properly. Since none of the dev teams (Slim, Liquid, Beanstalk, CM and so on) do not build nor support 2.16 hboot, all their official/nightly builds are for 2.15 and below. Beside those, there are some people that builds different ROM versions for 2.15 and for 2.16 hboot. Phoenixita is one of them and most of the ROMs he build are in 2 versions. Just be sure you flash the right one but by default, if nothing is specified in the ROM thread, the ROM is for 2.15 and below.
[HTC One S] syntropic:
I was asking... so I wasn't quite wrong having not made any conclusions. :D

Thank you for the answer... I did find the hboot 2.15 4.4.2 in GooManager.....
[HTC One S] truevision:
sorry... st definitely doing something wrong ...

I downloaded Beanstalk, I checked the MD5 and it's ok, but I can't flash, TWRP 2.6.3.0 gives me an error...

2.15 s-off

You'll need this RECOVERY TO FLASH THIS AND ALL THE NEWER ROMs.

the recovery needed is linked ion the 2ns post.

[HTC One S] truevision:
After set absolute black option, getting constant systemui errors, is know issue?
[HTC One S] grorg:
Yes it's a known issue. And it's appear only in latest builds
[HTC One S] truevision:
there is a solution? a work around..

like dirty flash on a previous version?
[HTC One S] Rapier:
Since 4.4006 I've flashed BeanStalk only dirty. I'm on latest 4.4.200 and I surely don't have this issue. In fact I don't have ANY issues except that common KitKat bug with the backlight
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
Really? I did a full wipe before flashing the latest build and it had crashes both times. It was however my first 4.4 rom in the last 2 weeks. What gapps did you use?
[HTC One S] syntropic:
I flashed this after 3 wipes (to be on the safe side), and it's working great!

One question... does anyone know of a camera mod that takes advantage of the optical zoom? All pictures are shot from the same distance....no zooming in is possible at the moment.

Other than that...ummm.. the only thing that I miss is the battery bar at the top. I don't think I saw that under settings and I think it was in reinstall 4.3... But I know you can't include everything.

Thanks again!
[HTC One S] kogadin:
Is there the data drop issue on this ROM for 2.16 hboot? If yes is it better on 2.15 and how would I be able to downgrade to 2.15 hboot?

Thanks
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
For some reason, even 4.4.1 didn't work for me. I tried 4.4.2 as well and immediately turned off blackout, but it still gave f/c after a restart. Is there some data that is being restored from my google account that is messing with the rom?

Eagerly waiting for the next build. Dunno if beanstalk has it but I'd love to see the brightness slider control
[HTC One S] kogadin:
Could someone tell me how to downgrade hboot From 2.16 to 2.15. I stopped using sense Roms after release oft KitKat for our phone i would like to be able to install the other KitKat roms as well.
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
Next time, just search "downgrade" in the thread. You are not the first to want to do this

Found this
[HTC One S] phoenixita:
First flash 4.4006 let it boot. Then flash without wiping 4.4.200 and gapps.
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
Will I be able to use blackout?
[HTC One S] phoenixita:
I am.
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
Thank you very much for that. I now have beanstalk running on my phone! I do have some questions however

With both blackout and normal, "contacts" has a black font, making it impossible to read with a black background. Is that the case with everyone or just me?

Blackout doesn't seem to affect calendar or google play

Is there an option for killing apps by holding "back"? It wasn't in dev options

Is there a way to changing default messaging app in settings? As the AOSP messaging app does not have emoji, I am going to use another one, meaning I won't have the option to switch from the app Found it... I knew I saw it before

All in all, this is a very good and stable rom, and a big thank you for implementing the brightness slider, as well as all the other tweaks.:good:
[HTC One S] Rapier:
Blackout or the dark switch affects basic apps only. The GAPPS or other apps are blackened ONLY if the GAPPS package was specially themed for this. This is also the reason for which you get that black on black text in People (I got it too). Calendar is not yet darkened, you have to wait for it. For the rest and some apps being dark, use the latest Slim GAPPS (HERE). You can also use Slim's messaging app since in the last 1.9 beta it has emoji support (and it's dark also :P )

For back key to kill apps I use Xposed Additions module.

Tip: Use Thyrus KitKat dark theme...you'll really see a difference (it's paid but you can get a free version by joining the beta testing program)
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
I see. I've been using slimrom gapps since 4.3, but I might switch to yourZGapps for the blackout. I've been using holo glass as a theme for it's transparency, but since beanstalk seems to have settings for everything I'll give Thyrus a shot. Thank you very much for telling me of Slim's messaging app. Sliding Messaging has a lot of options, but can be quite laggy.

Edit: Can I get a link to the messaging app? I could never really navigate through the slim page..
[HTC One S] Rapier:
For messaging app you should extract it from the ROM ZIP and replace the one in Beanstalk. I don't think you'll find it as a standalone app.

The GAPPS I've linked are also Slimrom GAPPS just they're latest version for Android 4.4.2

Thyrus's theme has some transparency as well (check the volume panel in the attached printscreen) and many more.

Sent from nowhere over the air...
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
I feel stupid asking this, but can I extract from any Slimrom? Or did you do it from an unofficial build for ville? As for the volume panel, did you manually expand that or did you set it to "expanded"? That feature doesn't seem to be present in any 4.4 rom but I'd love to have it
[HTC One S] Rapier:
I think you can extract it from any Slim ROM, messaging app is not specific to a device (as any other app I guess). Just make sure it's from the latest 1.9 weekly beta SlimKat. You can extract it from phoenixita's build, it's easier. The volume panel was manually expanded by me after I've pressed the vol button (done that to show you the transparency thing)

Edit: Messaging app is called MMS.apk and you'll find it in system/priv-app. Just rename the one from Beanstalk and copy the one from Slim. Set permissions to rw-r-r and reboot. What I saw it doesn't work, is setting the number of lines visible when you compose a message (FCs the message settings). Even the "breathing SMS icon" works
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
I just tried the one from Mako. Installed like any other app and updated it into the rom. Can you see if you can change the "text message limit"? It crashes for me. If yours works I'll download the one from phoenixita and upload it for others
[HTC One S] Rapier:
It crashes for me also. But it's set to 1000...I never needed to change that :) What you're writing, your whole life there? :)

Some features might not work since this is not a Slim ROM but most of them work
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
Lol I actually want to set the max to 150. I hate waiting to restore sms that I won't read. Anyways I restored data from titanium so it's good.

As for the theme, this picture basically sums up all my issues. Font is still invisible, top part of notification bar overlaps, and calendar is still white. Oh well...

Edit: this isn't the Kitkat theme you mentioned but the beta group is private so I'll have to wait.
[HTC One S] Rapier:
I bet you haven't restarted phone AFTER you've applied the theme...right? And if it is NOT the KitKat theme you'll get those issues as well since it is made for older Android. The one for KitKat does solve the People black on black font and also doesn't theme google dialer and the normal dialer since they're different from 4.3 Android and below. Check your PM
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
You generally don't need to restart the phone to have the theme come into effect (not for me at least).

Regardless, I have to say that you my friend, have solved all of my issues. Thank you very much :good:

And in case anyone wants to benefit from the Slimrom MMS, here it is
[HTC One S] Rapier:
Generally yes, but I've read somewhere in one of Thyrus's threads that he recommends a restart because some parts of the ROM are being themed and a restart is need for re-initializing them

Glad I could help. Now everything looks ok right?
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
Everything is great. Thanks again
[HTC One S] melo563:
Short answer still there.

Long answer I did a reboot and it worked fine and dandy also very fast there is a option in developer settings to enable reboot to bootloader and recovery just to throw it or there.

Then o tested further so as not to steer you wrong and did a power down and all hell broke loose on my phone like 4.3.

Also I have encountered a wired bug where if I do restart data won't connect but airplane mode fixes.
[HTC One S] RockR172:
there's nothing in his commit history.. weird..
[HTC One S] melo563:

[HTC One S] phoenixita:
You could try using audio cafs...
[HTC One S] RockR172:
yup, will try that later.. :)

by the way, you can build for hboot 2.16 too..

all you need is that FUSE SD Card patch, and THIS recovery.. :)
[HTC One S] phoenixita:
For the moment i'm building with a cherry pick that should fix bt car kit issues...don't know if i'll build for 2.16 cause every build takes 3/4 hours...I don't know how to use export ccache command...lol
[HTC One S] melo563:
For people wanting remap I know it is not totally the same but have you considered using pie from the play store for the same functionality with in screen buttons?

It works fine on this ROM.
[HTC One S] RockR172:
ccache is awesome man, reduced my build time from 1 hour to 35 mins..

just add these commands to .bashrc file in your home folder..

export USE_CCACHE=1

export CCACHE_DIR=~/.ccache

and then run this command in terminal..

prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -M 50G

you can change the size from 50GB to other considering your HDD space..

It looks like the issue was related to Slim_AIO_gapps.4.4.alpha.1.1. I flashed pa_gapps-full-4.4-20131114-signed all is working great now. Thanks for such a quick 4.4 port and working ROM !

ehi rapier take a look at my androidfilehost account in 10/15 min i have a version with bt car kit cherry pick. could you test it? upload is now at 70%
[HTC One S] Rapier:
Of course... I was refreshing every minute to see if it's done. Keep my fingers crossed.

On a side note, I'm still surprised how stable this kk 4.4 is. MUCH better than 4.3, not a single reboot and I've tried to stress it alot. I'm still waiting to see the customizations and goodies from Beanstalk, but the fact that I've switched to this as daily ROM even if it doesn't have them yet, says alot. Hope this stability won't be broken by future commits

I was looking for Xposed framework but I don't see it. In Beanstalk 4.3 it was in the ROM (although I think it just needed to be activated)...

Could someone tell me where I might find it in 4.4.2...?
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
Xposed is generally not associated with the rom. What rovo89 intended was that you download it and install separately. I've never used a beanstalk build before, but for this one, just go to the xposed thread, download, install, reboot, and add modules
[HTC One S] syntropic:
Thank you... But until using Beanstalk 4.3, I never heard of Xposed. As such, I don't what it does, whether its device agnostic, whether it was written by another dev for another device that coincidentally works on ville without problems, or anything else. In all my time looking under the "Android Development" section, for the 1S I have not seen a thread entitled 'Xposed Framework'. So I am handicapped in that I don't know where to start looking for it.

On that note, I am not new to XDA, but have been eternally frustrated by the XDA search function (for desktop) [the search ability for the Android app has only recently improved in that now when you search you can restrict searches to the thread you are currently in.]

In the past when using the website, if I wanted to search for example for, 'CarbonRom Ville', I would not get any hits, forcing me to just search on 'CarbonRom'. The search results would yield every thread site wide that contained 'CarbonRom'...and these might be 95 page long threads that mentioned carbonRom. If I searched by 'CarbonRom' in the threadname, depending on what it was I was looking for (if it wasn't something easy like a ROM) I might get hundreds of threads that were irrelevant to what I was looking for.

In fact the only way I have ever kept track of anything on this site in the last 3 years and 3 phones is by bookmarking links others have provided in threads...

My whole point is this that this site has an enormous amount of information that is not grouped together very extensively, and the absolute WORST search capability I have seen...... I mean why couldn't they at least add Regex to their search so I could drill down more effectively to find what I want?

Anyway... I apologize for getting all salty this morning....its not directed at anyone in particular. Just frustrated and don't have time to read pages and pages of poorly written threads on what 'Xposed' is...not to mention the threads are not easy to read because for many English is not their native language...(and others have abhorrent grammar).

So could someone give me a link to where the Xposed Framework is for ville??? And, if you feel generous, maybe summarize or give me a link to a thread where it was introduced and explained?

Thank you and have a good day! I think I just need some coffee!

[HTC One S] Rapier:
You have the link already given by phoenixita but...have you ever though about searching "xposed" with google search? :) That thread from XDA was the first search item returned... Many times we try hours to do something using the given tools (in this case the XDA search), when it should have been much easier to stick with the already proved ones (google search for ex)

P.S. That "bookmarking" is very useful, I do the same :)
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
I believe Rapier has already answered your question, but just a small summary:

It is developed by rovo89, not a ville rom developer and it is essentially an after rom tweaker. The point of this is that it can be used on any rom on any phone so that you get the features you want all the time. As pointed out, just Google xposed framework and xposed collection. Bookmark those two threads and read.

Note that the framework itself does nothing. It's the modules that have features. I recommend xblast, x floating window, xuimod, and app settings.

brunching 4.4.205!
[HTC One S] Rapier:
Seems like 4.4.205 included some CM11 commits and some new goodies:

- the cracking sound sometimes when adjusting volume with vol buttons is gone (hope also the lower sound that occurs sometimes is gone too, but I need more testing for this)

- the settings for USB connection (MTP/PTP/UMS) are back in Storage menu

- pressing power button while screen is off now turns on the torch

- added settings for screen recorder in Screen and animations under Beanstalk Options

- added brightness status bar slider control

- on-the-fly custom density changer - that's awesome !!!! (in Beanstalk Options - Misc options). You can change overall screen density without the need to restart phone...changes are applied and visible immediately.

ROM is fast as always, will see how it goes in time... Well done phoenixita

Hi all, I am ready to try Beanstalk hboot 2.16 just to test KitKat before I downgrade to hboot 2.15. I been reading through the thread for a bit and came across this AROMA Installer but don't have the encryption key to download it. Anyway I have TWRP 2.6.1.0 and want to verify which is needed to flash the this 2.16 version. I think it says in the O.P. to use TWRP 2.6.3.0 but I am a little confused. can someone verify for me? Thanks!
[HTC One S] Rapier:
The one from OP is for 2.15 hboot. I think you should use the same recovery you used to flash the ROMs on 2.16

And I just downloaded the file you linked (that multi-recovery AROMA). There's no encryption key for downloading. I just clicked the link and downloaded.
